Photographed with: Hasselblad w/a 120mm lens, Digital LEAF back to capture image digitally. Two Pro-Photo heads. Strip box lighting rear, large soft box lighting foreground.
Description: Final project for Large Format. The objective to this particular assignment was to create two commercial product shots using Large or Medium format cameras. This image being one of my two shots. I chose to use Goose Island as my subject matter. I fell in love with the Goose while visiting friends in Chicago a couple of years back and had to shoot it. I'm not completely satisfied with my lighting. I should have used a strip box in the foreground rather than the soft box but yo live and learn. I wish I could have shot it at home but the LEAF back can't leave the school so not quite satisfied with my background either.

Project Victor is finally a success.
Sara has been asking for a Hasselblad camera for as long as I can remember. The idea of owning the Rolls Royce of cameras sends a shiver down her spine and gets her giggly whenever she talks about it.
One of the long standing ongoing jokes is each June when her birthday rolls around, she jokingly asks for a Hassie for her birthday, knowing that we could never afford one.
Until this year.
The other week a gentleman came into Cameraland (where I've been helping out a few days a week) and was talking to the owner. The owner of Cameraland knows about this little ongoing joke that Sara and I have, and while trying to eavesdrop on their conversation, I hear the word "Hassleblad" and then I hear "Hey, Sid, come over here for a minute" and I'm introduced to John. John is 85 and he's been working on Hasselblad's for most of his life. I tell him how Sara really wants one and how it would be great to finally surprise her with one of these cameras. We chat a little more and he says "well, I've got some parts at home. Lemme see what I can put together that might make her happy." and he leaves.
A few days later, he comes walking in with a Hassie C/M kit and explains to me that while the film back is some twenty years older than the body, everything was double checked and cleaned and in tip top shape and that since Sara is a lovely lady and loves photography and has been asking for one for so long, I could have it for $200.
At which I jumped on as soon as I picked up my jaw from the floor.
After he left, the owner of Cameraland told me to look up his full name on the internets, which I did, and it turns out that John is actually John Kovacs, who was one of the original group of technicians that worked on the NASA modification of Hasselblad equipment for the Space Program, and was one of the original Hasselblad technicians trained in Sweden many many years ago.
It also turns out that he is the patent holder for the workings that enable multiple exposures on cameras with a film-back mechanism.
So, not only do I get to present Sara with a fantastic condition C/M camera kit, but it was also put together by the guy that worked on the cameras that went into space for the first flight to the Moon.
Holey Moley!

She was given her gift Today (Sunday June 29th), and was really really really happy. yay!
I’ve been photographing with analog cameras for over a decade now and this isn’t my first Hasselblad (previously owning a V-Series 500CM). I now shoot mainly on 35mm and for the most part, a rangefinder, so picking up another medium format camera such as the 903 SWC (Super Wide Camera) was not so...

There’s no arguing that in their V-System, Hasselblad created one of the, if not the world’s most comprehensive and flexible medium format camera system. The V-System comprises of somewhere in the region of 35 bodies, 70 lenses, 20 film backs and a plethora of customisation options ...

So, I'm dying to try out this Polaroid film back. Problem is, I will have to remove the NC-2 prism viewfinder to use it. Now to search for a waist-level viewfinder. Arrrggghhh....

Welcome to the Hasselblad V-System Master Guide, a collection of in-depth articles and reviews intended to be an exhaustive resource for real, user-verified data on this classic film camera system.
To the uninitiated, the V-System is a black box; totally impenetrable. If you’re coming to ...

So fare thee well, my own true love,
For when I return, united we will be
It's not the leaving of Sundrive that grieves me,
But my darling when I think of thee

End of the week, end of Polaroid Week 2011. I left one print in the holder for the next 'Roid Week.

I’ve wanted to get into the medium format aspect of photography for some time now but the timing aspect hasn’t really been there if I’m honest, that was up until now.
I’ve admired several medium format cameras from afar but when the time to make that purchase there was...
